I am preparing this blog and my son Norman is typing it.
Let me tell you a few things about myself.
I am 96 years old. (I was born in 1911.) In another couple of years I will be able to say the first 100 years are the hardest.
Right now I live in the Jewish Home and Hospital in New York, NY.
I speak to my wife Florence almost every day.And I love her very much. Florence and I were both married before.
I have two sons, Alan and Norman. Alan is the older.
In this blog, I hope to tell a couple of stories and share a couple of observations.
I joined theNational Guard in the latter part of the 1920s. I went to different Army installations every year for the two weeks training. I joined because I was interested in wearing the uniform. And to learn about Army life. I was in the National Guard for three years. I l earned how to use a rifle and how to fire a 16" gun. I did not rejoin because I went to work in industry.
